Sani-Cast Hygiene Kit

MD Americas offers a new hygiene product designed to help sanitize and deodorize the skin wrapped in an orthopedic cast. The Sani-Cast kit includes a reusable medical-grade 21” easy-reach applicator and 36 premoistened disposable cleansing pads. Patients simply attach one of the cleansing pads to the end of the applicator and then slowly and cautiously work the pad up and down the skin underneath the cast, including hard-to-reach places. Sani-Cast is meant as a gentle cleansing alternative to power sprays and perfumes that may only mask odor and promote poor cast hygiene. The kit sells for approximately $15.
